The present invention relates to an oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic having excellent stability of an L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester derivative.
The L-ascorbyl fatty acid ester has bioactive and pharmacological effects of vitamin C, and is lipophilic unlike L-ascorbic acid and L-ascorbate. Thus, it has been used particularly in cosmetics containing a large amount of oil phase components, for imparting vitamin C activity to the cosmetics (see, Cosmetics Handbook, p. 395-398, edited by Nikko Chemicals Co., Ltd., published on Nov. 1, 1996; JP-A 9-65864 and JP-A 7-232051).
However, the L-ascorbyl fatty acid ester has a melting point as high as 110° C. to 120° C. and low solubility in fat and oil and is not soluble in water. Accordingly, blending of the L-ascorbyl fatty acid ester is necessary for obtaining sufficient bioactive functions into a cosmetic requires the L-ascorbyl fatty acid ester to be added first into an oil phase component in a heated state of 80° C. or more, then to be mixed and dissolved.
To solve the above problems, JP-B 3253735 proposes inventions of a certain L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester derivative and a cosmetic containing the same.
Further, JP-A 2003-238380, JP-A 2003-342159, JP-A 2003-306419, and JP-A 2004-51566 propose inventions of cosmetics containing the certain L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester derivative described in JP-B 3253735.
To improve the stability of the L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester in a preparation, a method for preventing coloration and generation of odor by using sulfurous acid, sulfite, bisulfite, hydrogensulfite, pyrosulfurous acid, and pyrosulfite (JP-A 2004-331524) has been reported, but the results were not sufficiently satisfactory.
The present invention provides a cosmetic having increased stability over time obtained by inhibiting the hydrolysis of a certain L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester derivative, which is the component contained in the cosmetic.
The present inventors have conducted intensive studies to improve stability of an L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester derivative in an oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic, and as a result, found that an oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic containing the following (A) to (E) as essential components and having a pH of 6 or less inhibits the hydrolysis of the L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester derivative and shows excellent stability, thereby completed the present invention:
##STR00002##
wherein R represents a branched alkyl fatty acid residue having 8 to 18 carbons;
The oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic of the present invention provides a cosmetic that is stable and can exert effects, such as melanogenesis inhibitory effect, melanin reducing effect, collagen production promoting effect, antioxidative effect, and lipid peroxide inhibitory effect for a long period of time, by inhibiting the hydrolysis of the L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester derivative of component (A).
Hereinafter, preferred embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail.
The present invention is an oil-in-water emulsion cosmetic containing components (A) to (E) as essential components and having a pH of 6 or less.
<Component (A)>
Component (A) used in the present invention is an L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester derivative represented by the following general formula (I).
##STR00003##
R represents a branched alkyl fatty acid residue having 8 to 18 carbons in general formula (I).
The L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester represented by general formula (I) is not particularly limited, as long as R is the branched fatty acid having 8 to 18 carbons. Specifically, examples thereof include branched alkyl fatty acid residues having 8 to 18 carbons such as 2-ethylhexanoic acid, 3,5,5-trimethylhexanoic acid, isopalmitic acid, and isostearic acid. When R is a branched alkyl fatty acid residue, the ester can be conveniently handled, since it is liquid at room temperature.
The lower ester in which R has less than 8 carbons has poorer solubility in oil and the one in which R has more than 18 carbons has increased oily feeling and stickiness.
The L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester represented by general formula (I) is the L-ascorbyl tetra fatty acid ester described in JP-B 3253735 and can be produced by the production method described therein. A commercial product, NIKKOL VC-IP (made by Nikko Chemicals Co., Ltd), is also available.
The content ratio of component (A) in the cosmetic is preferably 0.001 to 50.0% by mass, and more preferably 0.01 to 30.0% by mass. The preferred blending proportion varies in accordance with the form of the cosmetic.
<Component (B)>
Component (B) used in the present invention is a polar oil which is liquid at 25° C. and having an IOB value of 0.1 to 0.5. By containing component (B), the hydrolysis of component (A) in the cosmetic is inhibited.
The IOB value in the present invention is an abbreviation of “Inorganic/Organic Balance,” and is a value corresponding to the ratio of the inorganic value of a compound to the organic value of the compound, which is an index of the polarity of an organic compound. Specifically, the IOB value is indicated as IOB value=inorganic value/organic value.
As for each “inorganic value” and “organic value,” the “inorganic value” and “organic value” are determined for the individual atom or functional group, for example, an “organic value” of 20 for a carbon atom in a molecule and an “inorganic value” of 100 for a hydroxyl group in the molecule, and thus, the IOB value of an organic compound is calculated by adding “inorganic values” and “organic values” of all the atoms and functional groups in the organic compound (see, for example, “Organic Conception Diagram—Fundamentals and Applications—” written by Yoshio Koda, p. 11-17, published by Sankyo Shuppan Co., Ltd., 1984).

The polar oil of component (B), the chelating agent of component (C), the antioxidant of component (D), and the higher alcohol of component (G) (3.50% by mass) were used and the pH was adjusted, and as a result, the hydrolysis of component (A) was inhibited. With a pH of 6 or less, the hydrolysis of component (A) was more inhibited in Example 2-2 in which the cosmetic had a lower pH of 5.5 or less. Additionally, the use of succinic acid having a chelating effect as a pH adjuster in Example 2-2 seems to have affected the inhibition of the hydrolysis of component (A).

The polar oil of component (B), the chelating agent of component (C), the antioxidant of component (D), and a small amount of component (G) (3.50% by mass) were used and the pH was adjusted, and as a result, the hydrolysis of component (A) was inhibited. The inhibitory effect on the hydrolysis of component (A) by the chelating agent of component (C) was higher in the order of succinic acid (Example 3-3), EDTA (Example 3-1), EDTA-2Na (Example 3-2), and the presence of Na ion seems to have caused a decrease in inhibitory effect in Example 3-2.
Each of the first phase and the second phase shown in Table 4 is weighed and warmed to dissolve uniformly. Subsequently, the first phase was gradually added to the second phase and the mixture was emulsified with a homogenizer. Then, the mixture was cooled to 40° C. to obtain a cosmetic.

In Examples 4-1 and 4-2, the polar oil of component (B), the chelating agent of component (C), the antioxidant of component (D), and a small amount of component (G) (5.00% by mass) were used and the pH was adjusted, and as a result, the hydrolysis of component (A) was inhibited. Without component (B), a poorer inhibitory effect on the hydrolysis of component (A) was shown in Comparative Example 1. The inhibitory effect on the hydrolysis of component (A) was higher in Example 4-2 than that in Example 4-1. This is because the compatibility with component (A) was: the polar oil of component (B)>nonpolar oil (squalane), and the combination of the polar oil of component (B) and component (A) having good compatibility with each other seems to have prevented component (A) from transferring into water.
The respective components shown in Table 5 were used to prepare cosmetics in the same way as in Example 1.

In Examples 5-1 and 5-2, the polar oil of component (B), the chelating agent of component (C), the antioxidant of component (D), and a small amount of component (G) (3.50% by mass) were used and the pH was adjusted, and as a result, the hydrolysis of component (A) was inhibited. Without component (B), a poorer inhibitory effect on the hydrolysis of component (A) was shown in Comparative Example 2. Comparing Example 5-1 with Example 5-2, the inhibitory effect on the hydrolysis of component (A) was higher in Example 5-2 in which the proportion of the polar oil of component (B) was higher. This is because the compatibility with component (A) was: the polar oil of component (B)>nonpolar oil (squalane), and the combination of the polar oil of component (B) and component (A) having good compatibility with each other seems to have prevented component (A) from transferring into water.
The respective components shown in Table 6 were used to prepare cosmetics in the same way as in Example 1.

The description “—”indicates no addition.
In Example 6-1, 6-2, and 6-3, the polar oil of component (B), the chelating agent of component (C), the antioxidant of component (D), and a small amount of component (G) (4.75% by mass) were used and the pH was adjusted, and as a result, the hydrolysis of component (A) was inhibited. When the alcohol of component (G) was used, the alcohol having more carbons exhibited a higher inhibitory effect on the hydrolysis of component (A). This is because the higher alcohol is present on the interface between the first phase (oil phase) and the second phase (aqueous phase), and the alcohol having more carbons seems to make component (A) in the first phase (oil phase) hard to transfer to the second phase (aqueous phase).

In Examples 7-1, 7-2, and 7-3, the polar oil of component (B), the chelating agent of component (C), the antioxidant of component (D), and component (G) were used and the pH was adjusted, and as a result, the hydrolysis of component (A) was inhibited. When the higher alcohol of component (G) was used, a lower amount of component (G) increased the inhibitory effect on the hydrolysis of component (A). A larger amount of component (G) increases the amount of component (G) dissolved in the first phase (oil phase), and this causes the hydroxyl group of component (G) to react with component (A), which results in the decrease in the inhibitory effect on the hydrolysis of component (A).
